ALL GOOD GIFTS
--------------
from soundtrack of GODSPELL

We plow the fields and scatter
The good seed on the land
But it is fed and watered
By God's almighty hand

He sends the snow in winter
The warmth to swell the grain
The breezes and the sunshine
And soft refreshing rain

(refrain)
All good gifts around us
Are sent from heaven above
So thank the Lord
Oh, thank the Lord
For all His Love.

We thank Thee then of Father
For all things bright and good
The seed time and the harvest
Our life, our health, our food

No gifts have we to offer
For all Thy love imparts
But that which Thou desirest
Our humble, thankful hearts

(repeat refrain)

I really want to thank You, Lord
(All good gifts around us)
I want to thank You, Lord
(are sent from heaven above)
Oh, thank You, Lord
(All good gifts around us)
Thank You, Lord
Thank You, Lord

 

ALL I EVER WANTED WAS MY LIFE
-----------------------------
sung by: John Klemmer

Time to hear the ocean
Time to see the sky
Time to close my eyes
Just to feel
Just be real

A chance to learn and grow
A place that I call home
A woman and child my own
Just for me
Just be free

A star to reach for
So little yet much more
Something I can really hold on to

A love I take with me
A hand to lead me

All I ever wanted was my life
All I ever wanted was my life
All I ever wanted was my life

Time to work and play
Time to think and grow
Time to search and know
Who I am
If I can

A chance to find my soul
To understand my role

All I ever wanted was my life...
was my life...was my life

 

BEAUTIFUL CITY
--------------
from soundtrack of GODSPELL

I
Come sing me sweet rejoicing
Come sing me love
We're not afraid of voicing
All the things we're dreaming of
Oh high and low
and everywhere we go

(refrain)
We can build a beautiful city
Yes we can, yes we can
We can build a beautiful city
Call it out
And call it the city of man.

II
We don't need alabaster
We don't need thrones
We've got our special plaster
Take my hand, I'll take you home.
We'll see nations rise
In each other's eyes.

(repeat refrain)
(repeat I)
(repeat refrain)

 

FAREWELL
--------
sung by: Raymond Lauchengco

We used to be frightened
And scared to try
Of things we don't really understand why
We laughed for a moment
And start to cry
We were crazy

Now that the end is already here
We've reminisced about old yells and cheers
Even if our last hurrah's were never clear

(refrain)
Farewell to you my friends
We'll see each other again
Don't (cry/worry) cause it's not the end of everything
I may be (miles/oceans) away
But here is where my heart will stay
With you, my friend,
With you

Yesterday's a treasure
Today is here
Tomorrow's on its way
The sky is clear

Thank you for the memories
Of all the laughter and tears
Not to mention our doubts and our fears
The hypertension we gave to our peers
It's really funny to look back
After all of these years

(repeat refrain 2x)

With you, my friends,
With only you

 

GOODBYE MY FRIEND
-----------------
sung by: Gary Valenciano (circle 10 LSGH)

Goodbye, my friend, goodbye
Now it's time to go on my way
We'll find some other time
That would bring us back together again

Thanks for the moments
That you gave all this time
Thanks for all your love

Goodbye, my friend, goodbye
Now it's time to go

Goodbye, my friend, goodbye
Now it's time for me to go on my way
We'll find some other time
That would bring us back together again

Thanks for the laughter
And the joys that we had
But now it makes me cry
To say...

Goodbye, my friend, goodbye
Now it's time to go
Now I have to go

 

HOME
-------
sung by: Diana Ross

Think of home...home

When I think of home I think of a place
Where there's love overflowing

I wish I was home I wish I was back there
With the things I've been knowing

Wind that makes the tall trees bend into leaning
Suddenly the raindrops that fall have a meaning
Sprinkling the sea,
Makes it all clear

Maybe there's a chance for me to go back
Now that I have some direction.
It would sure be nice to be back home
Where there's love and affection

And just maybe I can convince time to slow up
Giving me enough time in my life to grow up
Time, be my friend. Let me start again.

Suddenly my world's gone and changed it's pace
But I still know where I'm going
I have had my mind spun around in space
And yet I've watched it growing

Oh, if You're listening, God,
Please don't make it hard
To know if we should believe the things that we see
Tell us should we run away, should we try and stay
Or would it be, better just to let things be?

Living here, in this brand new world might be a fantasy
But, it taught me to love
So, it's real, real to me
And I've learned that we must look inside our hearts
to find a world full of love
like yours, like mine
like home.

 

I AM YOUR CHILD
---------------
sung by: Barry Manilow

I am your child
Wherever you go
You take me too
Whatever I know
I learn from you
Whatever I do
You taught me to do
I am your child

And I am your chance
Whatever will come
Will come from me
Tomorrow is won
By winning me
Whatever I am
You taught me to be
I am your hope
I am your chance
I am your child

Whatever I am
You taught me to be
I am your hope
I am your chance
I am your child

 

MOM AND DAD
-----------
sung by: Jamie Rivera

Mom and Dad
This song is for you
A way to let you know
What I find hard to show

I love you
For everything you've done
For all your sacrifice
Since I was very young

(refrain I)
I know it took some pains
To help me grow
And now I feel I've got to let you know

(refrain II)
Mom and Dad
I know I hardly show it
But beneath me that is true
I feel this for the both of you
I really love you Mom and Dad

Mom and Dad
You see me through and through
Even in the times when I was mean to you

And if I would start my life anew
I like to make you see
How loving I can be

(repeat refrain I)

(repeat refrain II)(2x)

 

MORNING HAS BROKEN
------------------
sung by: Cat Stevens

Morning has broken
Like the first morning,
Blackbird has spoken
Like the first bird.
Praise for the singing,
Praise for the morning,
Praise for them springing,
Fresh from the Word.

Sweet the rains new fall
Sunlit from heaven,
Like the first dewfall
On the first grass.
Praise for the sweetness
Of the wet garden,
Sprung in completeness
Where His feet pass.

Mine is the sunlight,
Mine is the morning,
Born of the one light
Eden saw play.
Praise with elation,
Praise every morning,
God's recreation
Of the first day.

Morning has broken
Like the first morning,
Blackbird has spoken
Like the first bird.
Praise for the singing,
Praise for the morning,
Praise for them springing,
Fresh from the word.
